“The company lost sensitivity in the construction of creativity Thanks to television” (Francisco Huneeus Cox, Association of editors Chile).

Just last week, i was between classes at the Masters (Blog / YouTube Channel Open Courseware) and a seminar on “Access to culture and Copyright” organized by the ONG-Digital Rights. Item that clearly linked the unknown as Intellectual Property.

Again I went back to see the great difficulty and complexity of process. The authors do not know what their rights are to create a work. Discussions included the benefits, receipts, freedom of knowledge and a series of laws to understand this little world that is dying in the digital age.

“How long can I earn money by a book?”, “Why are we to pay for access to culture, whether it is free?”. Questions made public to the panelists. Part of the analysis is on understand that Intellectual Property is not a consumer good that was once used boot. Since it is a thought that can encourage others continue to improve the same idea. It’s a bit like the works innovation; take two things that already exist and create something new. What is important not to forget the sum of the original factors. Leaving
free access is a necessity.

The difficulty comes when we talk about monetary figures, authorizations, deadlines, piracy among others. an act which will undoubtedly is ancient in age, where the Creative Commons licenses are playing a role of high importance, but not covering the entire field since they are complementary.

Personally I think that because the Internet is a character important, access today if limited, somewhere is
free; what the perpetrators are left to be quiet? each one decides whether their material is free to users. Clearly is a proposal deranged at the time thinking about the large number of material (author already deceased) who should be governed. Sure there is a solution to this topic, the important thing is to think in the future and see how we deliver the best tools for both sides; authors (can live their creation) and consumers of culture (free access).

I believe that when an author charge for his work-and rightly-that material is important to the community, it would be good if the government finance those licenses and assume that costs for the sake of
free access. I will not stick your nose in budget and numbers, I think it is simply an investment term. The management knowledge has never been a waste of money.
